Voy a ofrecer un "grupo de estudio guiado" durante las tardes de los dias 14 y 18 Marzo, para acompañar el curso en Ingles (vea el folleto adjunto), para ayudar a cualquier persona que más o menos entienda Ingles pero todavia tiene dificultades para comprender el vocabulario complejo y las estructuras de frases necesarias para entender las preguntas del examen en Ingles.
Las sesiones de estudio en las tardes son gratis, pero requiero que tambien asista a las sesiones de la mañana en Ingles ($ 50 por ambos días, vea el folleto en ingles para registrarse). Tambien es necesario que se registre para las sesiones de estudio guiado conmigo - envíeme un email (jev67@cornell.edu)
Ambos trainings se van a realizar en la oficina de CCE en Orleans county (12690 NY31, Albion NY).
Las sesiones de la tarde son gratuitas, pero si es necesario que se registre.
¡Escribáme si tiene alguna pregunta, y por favor envíe este mensaje a cualquier otra persona que tenga interes!
